Haven't got the time to visit some caves or basins just yet, so I stayed in town. But I did manage to visit our local YYC bird sanctuary. Here's a shot with my 24-105mm f/4L lens @ maximum 105mm length, with a bit of cropping.

Not the greatest, but at least some progress at taking more action-based photos. This little guy (a black-capped chickadee) was really quick and agile, so it took a lot of patience to capture it in this position with the current lens I had.

Won't need f/2.8 for bird watching during the day unless I'm trying to find some night owls Probably won't be able to catch the action anyway at night without blurring or high ISO, which degrades the photo quality.
